Burner serious problem (and a minor one)! - Portable

This is a discussion on Burner serious problem (and a minor one)! - Portable ; Hi everybody!
I have a problem using my burner on an Acer Aspire 1307lc.
I use k3b for interface and cdrecord for burning cds. But K3b hangs (not
freezes nor crashes, just waits forever) until I open the cdrom
manually, ...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Here it waits (virtually forever) and i hear
a tick every second from the cdrom, just like it's reading something...
